Hello everyone,
our municipality will soon be selling building plots in a new development area. We are currently trying to select the "best" plots... I know, that sounds very optimistic... but in the application we have to name 5 building plots that would be suitable for us.
Of course, the plots at the edges with an unobstructed view of fields and vineyards are the most sought after. Below I have attached a screenshot showing the 2 (in my opinion) best plots (the plan is oriented north). We would like to take advantage of the beautiful view and install a large window front (a kind of glass façade) on the west side. On the south side, we want a lift-and-slide door (about 400cm x 250cm (13 feet x 8 feet 2 inches)) – marked in red on the picture. The distance to the property boundary would be only about 5.5m (18 feet).
The house should be an Energy Efficiency House 40 (Effizienzhaus 40). My husband is a bit skeptical about the glazing on the west side. He thinks the window front should be on the south side – but there we would not have a free view...
There are also 3 plots with neighbors on the south side. The problem there is that the house would be positioned a bit lower and the free view would be about 1.5 to 2m (5 to 6.5 feet) above the single-family house. So, you would have to look upwards or plan the living room on the first floor.
What do you think? Would having the glazing on the west side be a deal breaker for an Energy Efficiency House 40? Textile sunshades are planned.
We intend to consult an energy advisor only after we have a confirmed allocation for a specific plot.
It is important for me to start thinking early about a potential building plot – with all the pros and cons...

I would spontaneously choose plots 2902, 03, 07 😎 Those are exactly the three we ranked in positions 3 to 5;)icandoit schrieb:
How large are your top choices?
Is the builder exercising the right of first refusal also the owner of the plot in the west?Here is the plan with the size details. The three blue building plots had the right of first refusal

The municipality argued that the relatively small building authority cannot manage to handle all 50 construction projects at the same time. Once the first half of the building permit applications are processed and the initial structures are up, the rest will follow.To me, that sounds like a self-inflicted problem *LOL* Kati.com schrieb:
I can’t understand why the municipality didn’t plan this earth embankment directly at the boundary behind the properties. Is that common practice?It’s practical: the municipality saves the effort of separating it as an independent parcel, and this strip benefits your calculation of the floor area ratio. Plus, your rabbits can graze there ;-) Kati.com schrieb:
But the registration in the land registry makes me a bit suspicious. Are there really no significant disadvantages?The easement is much better secured this way than through dozens of individual private contracts — additionally, the municipality doesn’t have the option to choose the more complicated route in all federal states.https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/

The floor height is specified on the property. Is it not allowed to exceed or fall below this? This is probably a reference elevation for the finished floor (FH) and ceiling height (TH) – you can find a discouraging example of the opposite here: https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/zulaessige-wandhoehe-was-bedeutet-das.38433/
